This systematic review focuses on the exploration and advancement of sustainable and eco-friendly polymer composite materials derived from bast fibers. Bast fibers, obtained from the phloem of certain plants like flax, hemp, jute, and kenaf, represent a renewable and environmentally benign resource. Their integration into polymer based composites has gained significant attention due to the growing environmental concerns and the need for sustainable material development. The importance of this study lies in its comprehensive examination of bast fibers as viable alternatives to the synthetic fibers in polymer composite materials. By harnessing the natural strength, light weight, and biodegradability of bast fibers, this review contributes to the creation of materials that are not only environmentally sustainable but also possess enhanced mechanical properties suitable for various industrial and domestic applications.

“…Enhancing the strength and toughness of composite materials are nanocellulose fibers, which have a high aspect ratio and exceptional tensile strength [72,73]. This reinforcement is especially useful in sectors that demand materials that are low weight but nevertheless durable, such as athletic products, aircraft constructions, and automotive components [74][75][76].…”
